Grifo Hotel

What an amazing hotel! From the moment we arrived, we had such a wonderful experience. The staff was so friendly and helpful, the room was spotless and the grounds were immaculately beautiful. The ocean view from our room was amazing. The breakfast was delicious with so many options, there was something for everyone. I only wish I had time to experience some of the spa services. I would 100% recommend this to anyone who wants a quiet place to relax and enjoy the beauty of their surroundings.

This hotel has been amazing, extremely accommodating, very clean, and it really made our vacation. They have a set menu at the hotel for lunch and dinner. Dinner gets a new menu every day, If you don’t like something on the menu, Enzo, the dinner manager will accommodate you, just as he did for us many times. There is a great breakfast served in the morning with many options to chose from. The rooms are cozy, comfortable, and immaculately clean. We stayed in 3 rooms, one came with an extra bed which was great when one of our friends had accidentally booked a room without a place for their child to sleep. I only have one “bad”(not even a bad thing) thing to say about the rooms is that the electricity turns off when you take the room key out of the slot which when you are trying to charge something when not in the room you have to leave a room key in. The spa in the basement is incredible, with multiple waters, saunas, and showers to chose from(all felt amazing I recommend following the map I felt so refreshed). The staff is so kind and welcoming, Francesco sings every saturday night and dances which was so fun and amazing. Frederico, the bartender, made lovely drinks and was a treat to talk to. The owners are so kind and accommodating, there is always someone to help if you need. All the staff at the hotel were so helpful and kind and such a pleasure to talk to. Overall this hotel has made my vacation so much more relaxing and has been the most amazing hotel I have stayed at ever! I have loved staying at this hotel, if i could rate it higher I would! Highly recommend if you come to Ischia!!!

This is definitely the best place to stay in Ischia!!! From the scenery, to the staff it was always an amazing time. The food was amazing and listening to Francesco preform every Saturday was so much fun. Enzo the restaurant manager was very personable and genuinely an amazing person. Carmela and Alberto (the owners)are truly amazing as well, they are very down to earth and treat their guests like they are at home. The whole staff here really makes you feel so welcome. Federico at the bar is also amazing. Be sure to check out the spa as well, it’s very calming and Lucia is so wonderful. If you come to Ischia you should definitely stay here!!!

Stole our hearts Ischia was our first stop in a 21-day trip in Italy and, even though we stayed in some amazing places, Grifo Hotel still holds a special place in our hearts. We had a wonderful room on the second floor with balcony and beautiful views of the water. The room was a good size, the bathroom very nice with a great shower. Rooms vary so when making a reservation be sure to indicate what you'd like (terrace vs. balcony, first floor vs. second, water views vs. garden, etc.). The hotel has a free spa with steam room, pools, saunas, etc. in addition to an outdoor pool and outdoor thermal pool. They were all wonderful to use after a day of exploring Ischia. The hotel location near Ischia Porto was perfect because Porto is where all the bus lines depart so getting to any and all sites using public transportation was easy. The hotel is on a hill, away from the town bustle, so it provides a shuttle to/from Porto. You are required to reserve/call ten minutes before the scheduled time to make sure they can accommodate everyone, but it was never an issue. The bar service by the pool was terrific. Had the best drinks there of our entire trip. But the very best thing about the hotel is the staff. I'm so sorry to not remember the names of everyone, but each staff member was so helpful from the very first young lady who annotated a map of the island for us, to others who made reservations (and changed them when our plans changed!), to the gentleman who oversaw the restaurant and remembered what we liked at breakfast after the first day, to the spa staff that came out to check that the water in the outdoor thermal pool wasn't too hot for us, just anything you needed, they were there, kind and personable. An example: when Francesco ( I think that was his name!) dropped us off at the ferry port for our departure, we realized that my husband had left his phone charger in the room. Not the end of the world, but he was upset and said we would call the hotel and ask them to mail it to somewhere along our trip. Then we said good-by. Just as we were boarding the ferry plank, Francesco called out to us and handed us (across many people) the phone charger! He had driven back to the hotel, looked for it, and brought it to us. That's what the staff will do to help make your trip wonderful. Just an amazing place.

Simply the best experience. Grifo Hotel is a little place of heaven, everything about it is great and pleasant: It has one of the best and friendliest staff ever, out of any hotel in the world, everyone was genuinely amazing and we really bonded with the team. A beautiful and relaxing Spa and thermal bath. A great restaurant with amazing food and vibes, either inside or by the pool. Very cosy rooms with view on the sea and the mountains from the balcony. They also offer a free shuttle to and from the port which is incredibly helpful considering how expensive taxis can be. Hotel Grifo was a magical experience, we have been back home for 24 hours and are already nostalgic of it :) We’ll 100% stay there again at our next trip to Ischia

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights at this hotel. From the moment we were collected from the Port until we transferred back to the Port to catch the boat to Naples. The rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet. The food was delicious….and the coffee was great. Thanks Enzo for making a good coffee for an Australian who doesn’t take her coffee as the Italian people do 😌 We were welcomed with a drink and a staff member who helped us us organise our time on the Island with suggestions and information so we could make the most of Ischia. Most of all though….I would like to complement the staff . Each staff member was friendly, helpful, patient and eager to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Thank you. I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely Hotel. We certainly intend to return here one day. Thank you
